Look Du Jour: Strawberries & Cream

Here we have yet another February purchase that had yet to make it out of my wardrobe until yesterday! Given that it took 6 months for this little strawberries & cream ensemble to get it’s first outing, next year I’m going to try and resist the urge to start my Spring shopping until temperatures rise above zero… Or at the very least, until something so goddamn gorgeous crops up that it would be a crime not to buy it. I teamed this red and cream combo with my beloved navy blue Whistles jacket, causing a lot of people to comment on how patriotic I looked. Indeed, I did blend in worryingly well with the union jack toting hoards gathered at Green Park station, leaving my thinking that it might be best to stow this outfit away until after the Olympics. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not one of those whingers who hates the Olympics (did you SEE the opening ceremony?? Sheer, bloody genius) but while I support Team GB through and through, I’m not going to spend the next fortnight sporting our national colours!
